Earful
Shui yawned and rubbed her drowsy eyes as she stretched her back. She saw Jin over at the couch, sleeping in an awkward position. She blinked, confused.
Why is he sleeping like that?
She let out another small yawn and walked towards him. She was puzzled at his seemingly annoyed expression he showed while in his sleep. He loosely held his phone in his right hand that was close to slipping away.
A popup light flashed on his phone and she curiously leaned in. Seeing Alix's name highlighted on it surprised her. She cast a sideways glance.
Jin was talking to Alix at this hour? Strange, she thought.
Shui stood like that for a few moments in the early morning's silence, staring at Jin's sleeping face.
I promise I will always be by your side.
A small, defeated smile laced her lips.
No, Jin. You won't.
